gfhgfhgfh December 4, 2012 Re: Alicia Govannicci To Whom it May Concern: Alicia Govannicci is a talented, dedicated young woman who has excelled during her field placement at West Windsor Plainsboro High school north. I am continually impressed at the degree of care, presentation, and thoughtfulness she gives when teaching students with developmental disabilities. She is bright, thoughtful and caring; works well with others; learns quickly, and expresses herself clearly. In the past six weeks Alicia has actively dedicated her time to the classroom environment. Alicia was placed at West Windsor Plainsboro High school North within a special needs program named the Larks. Alicia demonstrated the ability to plan appropriate instruction that supports student progress in learning and is appropriate level for the students. Alicia employed a variety of strategies and lessons to balance the cultural, socioeconomic, and developmental needs of the students. She successfully employed engaged activities as well as presented PowerPoint lessons that were integral to her teaching as well as student learning, were compelling and exhibited high production values. She is adept at using computers and technology to produce her own work. Alicia has done exemplary work in lesson plan design and execution which will only help her in a contemporary classroom. Most importantly, Alicia is friendly but authoritative. She adapts classroom climate needs for different classes as well as for individuals, when need. Students positively respond to her as a teacher. She expects students to be on task at all times and to participate in discussions, activities, and assignments. When students make other choices, she is quick to provide feedback and instruction of appropriate behavior. Her classroom management skills apply equally to all students while giving them the freedom to learn and explore. Alicia has blossomed into a exceptional future teacher. She is professional, flexible, and collaborative. I believe she will be a valuable asset to any school community and recommend her with no reservations. Sincerely, Christine Fityere M.Ed.
